24. A psychiatrist friend who I generally respect thinks the same that all these mass

shootings are put up jobs with hired actors. He tried to show me online different scenes from different shootings where people involved be it the police or bystanders were the same people, just hired actors. The fact is the people looked nothing alike a fact I tried to convey to him but he couldn’t see. I was literally floored when he told me this in confidence. This guy is a respected psychiatrist with a wife who is a psychologist and young kids. How in the hell do we combat this insanity?
